Chelsea fullback Azpilicueta enjoyed first season under Mourinho

Chelsea fullback Cesar Azpilicueta enjoyed his first season with Jose Mourinho last season.

Mourinho ended his first season back in charge at Stamford Bridge without a trophy, but the Spain defender is sure with a few additions Chelsea will challenge for silverware next season.

"Right from the first day, when I began training under him, it was clear that he is a very different coach," the 24-year-old said.

"He's always shown faith in me and it's just a shame that we couldn't win any trophies during his first year back with us.

"We came close though and with a few great signings and the team maturing, hopefully we'll win something".
